Which CB unit do you have?

Looking to get a CB in the H2, most likely a handheld with a folding antenna. Which is the most popular brand suitable for offroad use?

I was considering getting the Midland 40 channel, any suggestions?

Thanks.

I have the cobra 75... http://www.cobra.com/index.php?page=shop/flypage&product_id=5&id=1

It gets better range than a handheld, and can be removed easily. I use it between the hummer and the jeep.

Where did you guys buy the unit from?
I am trying to buy from a local spot here in Orange County (Best Buy, Circuit City, etc.) but no one seems to carry them. Did you guys order them from the internet?

Also, the local stereo shop wanted $100 to do the installation of the antenna and the CB, is that about right?

Anyone know a good reseller or installer they can recommmend?


Thanks!
